[QUOTE=Exec Talent]A few years back a young guy made some posts on this board. He was welcomed with opened arms by several of us. What was different about him?
His first posts were of girls whom had NOT been widely reviewed. In other words, they weren't me too posts containing information readily available. It is like in school -- he did original research and didn't copy someone else's work. I hated cheaters then and still hate them now.
His research was later confirmed by trusted senior members which added to his credibility. His firsthand research cost him some money. He wasn't looking for a free lunch and was willing to pay his dues.
Most of us understand that LE has a place in society and has a job to do. The problem is priorities. When cars are stolen, home burglarized, people robbed and yes, women raped and people killed and nothing is done about it because 20 cops are hanging out on OBT acting like a bunch of high school punks, you might imagine that that rubs some of us the wrong way.
The police forces in Central Florida are a joke. We do not need more police, we need more effective police. A crime is reported and the perpetrator is caught, arrested and convicted. I have posted the statistics before -- LE in CF couldn't find their asses with both hands and a flashlight. What if you were a waiter in a restaurant and someone places an order which never makes it to the table because you were spending all day in the back talking with you co-workers. How many times have you seen 3-4 police cars at a minor traffic accident?
The goal of the average LEO is to work 20 years without putting themselves in danger retire at before 45 with a pension. Get another job for 20 years and retire again with another pension at 65.
So when some LE asshole comes on here trolling for info, yeah, I think there are better things that they should be doing and I have no problem telling them to fuck off.
If a "newbie" here who says he has been a member for many years and has never made a contribution to this forum -- same thing applies.
I really see no reason to apologize. Contribute first, reap the benefits second. If you are a non-contributing leech who expects others to spend their money taking one for the team over and over again, then think again. If you are LE with nothing better to do than try to bait members of this forum, then go home look in the mirror and try to convince yourself that you really are protecting and serving.[/QUOTE]
This may very well be the best post I've ever seen on this Forum. Way to put it in straighforward terms, ET.
